My Kisses Not Lightly Poem by Shahid Solomon

Taking my kisses not lightly
The world is saying hello
Unkept, unkempt and unsexed
I can belong to none, and be owned by all

I shall not rest
Love, indigo love, waterfall love
Rich thick blood love, be loved
With the insane liquor of life

Transporting my laptop through
Bars and streets
transporting my soul
through fears and loves

I have waited a long time
I am the gladiator, life is the lion
I am the wind chasing the moon
I am the dream yet undreamt
